Quality Aluminum Driveshaft

When you need a driveshaft that is lightweight, can handle higher torque loads and can give you a nice polish finish, then consider an Action Machine aluminum driveshaft.  The Action Machine aluminum driveshaft is ideally suited for street rods, show cars, race cars and as OEM aluminum replacements.  While other driveline shops may use .065" wall or .083" wall tubing for their aluminum driveshafts, our volume purchasing allows us to use .125" wall tube for the same price as the thinner tube.  You have the best in aluminum performance no matter your application.

    Heavy Duty 5 Inch Aluminum Driveshaft

    This driveshaft fits 2001 to 2004 Chevrolet/GMC, Duramax extended cab, short bed, 4 Wheel Drive trucks with an automatic transmission.  

    Use this driveshaft to upgrade your 3.5 inch steel driveshaft into a heavy duty 5 inch aluminum piece. The OEM driveshafts are notorious for driveshaft vibrations and component failures.  Our Aluminum driveshaft upgrade offers a stronger and more reliable driveshaft. 

    This driveshaft is heavy duty from end to end. We use the Spicer cold forged sealed u-joint - the best and strongest 1410 u-joint available.  The Aluminum tubing is 5" OD Arconic premium aluminum seamless material that is 1/8" thick -- rated for over 7,000 ft/lbs of torque!  It will handle even the heaviest towing loads. We offer a lifetime warranty on our welds and a 1 year unlimited mile warranty on all parts.

    The driveshaft comes fully assembled with the transfer case slip yoke, balanced and ready to bolt in.  Installation is as simple as sliding in the transfer case yoke and bolting up the straps.  If you need new straps for the rear end yoke, select that option below.  Be sure to check for clearance issues with the old carrier bearing mounting bracket. Many Duramax trucks require you to remove the carrier bearing bracket so that the new larger driveshaft does not rub on the carrier bracket.

    You won't be disappointed with your 5 inch aluminum driveshaft.  Time and again customers are impressed at how well made the driveshaft is. - no matter if is a daily driver, over the road towing rig or pulling truck, aluminum is the way to go.

    This aluminum upgrade driveshaft is great for trucks that do tow heavy trailers or for those who want the best in driveshaft strength.  Don't need the upgrade?  Then consider our OEM replacement driveshaft: Chevy 2500 or GMC 2500. The OEM driveshaft duplicates OEM strength and durability with premium sealed u-joints and precision balancing which matches OEM specifications.
